Publisher Description:
Meet Olenka, an ordinary eel. Did I hear you say, “but aren’t eels just long slippery, slimy fishy-things that . . . hmm . . . . Is there anything else to know about eels?” You bet your buttons there is!
Sit back and hold on tight because Olenka is going to amaze you with superpowers such as double invisibility, shape-shifting, and supersecret Lair of the Abyss (that means a top-secret deep-sea hideout). In fact, Olenka’s life is so impossibly extraordinary, it has baffled the smartest scientists in the world for thousands of years.
“Impossible!” you say. I say, you don’t know eels. But you will.
Includes a ruler printed along the book’s back side to aid the observations of young field scientists everywhere!
Focusing on some of the most mysterious and misunderstood animals in the world, this series sheds light on the “superpowers” of animals that may seem ordinary or annoying. Each book covers information about how they were discovered, where they live, basic anatomy, various species, and (most importantly) their superpower. Each animal has at least one main “superpower,” or special ability that no other animal shares. The hope of this series is for the reader to appreciate these unique animals, and others, that often go unnoticed and unwanted. Each book includes many pictures and illustrations throughout and are information-filled. The back of each book includes a glossary of terms used throughout the book, as well as additional ways to learn about the featured animal. A 9” ruler is printed on the inside of the front cover for a size reference when measurements are mentioned throughout the book. 96 pgs, pb. ~ Brianna
